LSU Fake Field Goal


Oct 19, 2015, 8:49 PM

Might be Germanic but on the fake field goal in the LSU/UF game...How is the holder not considered down their? His knee is clearly on the ground and he is essentially a quarterback at that time. None of the talking heads (or the ones I've been listening to) have brought it up.

Rule 4, Section 1, Article 3

b. When any part of the ball carrier’s body, except his hand or foot, touches the ground or when the ball carrier is tackled or otherwise falls and loses possession of the ball as he contacts the ground with any part of his body, except his hand or foot [Exception: The ball remains alive when an offensive player has simulated a kick or at the snap is in position to kick the ball held for a place kick by a teammate. The ball may be kicked, passed or advanced by rule] (A.R. 4-1-3-I).

Just think about it for a second and it will be clear

if they didn't have the exception for the holder in the rulebook, then there couldn't be any kicks. The holder would be down as soon as he caught the snap.

Well I figured there would be an exceptions for kicks

The express exception for passing the ball is what I was curious about.
